About Us
Mission:
Legacy magazine is the official student-run magazine of the Office of Student Media at Louisiana State University. We aim to provide the student population at LSU with interesting feature-length, magazine-style stories that contribute to their knowledge of the world and the campus community of which they are a part.
History:
Legacy debuted in 1994, evolving from a previous student publication, Gumbo Magazine. Since its inception, Legacy has shared office space, equipment, and a vision with the Gumbo yearbook, as both publications try to illuminate campus life in that particular year. Also since its inception, Legacy has established itself as one of the top student magazines in the country, placing in the top six magazines in the country nine times in nine years. Starting out as a twice-a-year magazine, Legacy now publishes four times and year and contains advertising. It strives toward well-researched stories and edgy design.
